Primary & Secondary
Introduction
Students in the elementary and secondary grades go abroad to study for the same reasons that older students do–cultural enrichment and foreign experience–and also because their parents may go overseas to find work or be transferred there by an employer. School-age children studying abroad may be enrolled in a U.S. style school, either private or U.S. government operated. Whatever the reason for going abroad to study at this level, parents and children are often frustrated by the lack of information and assistance available for people in their situations. Wealth Ocean Consulting is attempting to help remedy this problem by providing the information presented here.
